Michael Barnett - One Song Romance [CD]

2014 album from the fiddler who is at the forefront of the new crop of acoustic instrumentalists that are redefining American string band music. His musical vision comes across in Technicolor on ONE SONG ROMANCE, establishing him as one of the pre-eminent fiddle players, singers and writers on the acoustic music scene. ONE SONG ROMANCE is a gorgeously played and immaculately recorded project featuring entirely Barnett original tunes and songs. Stand out tracks include the new acoustic romp 'Hopped the Train to Hudson' (featuring Noam Pikelny on banjo), the old-timey fiddle driven 'Change Her Mind' featuring Tim O'Brien and Aoife O'Donovan and the hauntingly beautiful slow Jazz-hued Waltz 'It Wasn't Meant to Be That Way' with Mike on vocals.
